Why PC Satellite TV is better than Cable Television

By Walter gane


Cable television is now available for most communities, and across most of the country. It can give you as many TV channels as a person could reasonably want, and can do so at high quality. However it is not the only option available for your TV choices, and in fact it isn't your best choice when it comes to channel line up, and value for money too.

There are two major problems with cable television. The first is that in order to get a reasonable service, with a reasonable amount of channels, you end up paying a lot of money. There may be set up costs initially, and ongoing monthly costs that include not only your package subscriptions but equipment rentals too.

Limited packages will cost you less but will also have less choice, and may exclude some of the better features, such as On Demand TV shows. Money can also be saved by renting lower quality equipment that has less features too, but this too detracts from the cable TV experience.

The other major drawback with cable TV is that it generally only allows you to view local TV channels. If you happen to be an expat, or even a person who is interested in the media and culture of other countries, then your cable television will not generally allow you to keep up with the countries that you want to.

PC Satellite TV brings the freedom that cable TV does not. There are no high costs, and in fact no ongoing monthly subscriptions, or equipment rental costs associated with PC Satellite TV. Instead there is just one single fee for buying the software that you need to watch TV on your computer, a low $49.95. Beyond that initial cost the system is entirely free for you to watch.

Choice in international channels with PC Satellite TV is impressive. There are channels from all around the world, including the UK and Asia, as well as channels from right here in the USA. It gives you the chance to watch sports teams that you follow from around the world live, as the games happen. Catch up with the news or learn about events in other countries, or just enjoy TV shows and movies in English or other languages.

Unlike the complicated menus that cable TV companies often employ, the software that PC Satellite TV has a very easy to use menu and channel guide. You won't need any special equipment. Unlike cable, there is no box that you must rent on a monthly basis, instead with the system being able to be installed on any Windows operating system. All that you need is an internet connection and a home computer to install the software on.

PC Satellite TV brings you the same great output that you have come to expect, almost as good as HDTV, and perfect for viewing on your home TV. You get all this, without the hefty monthly price tag that can make cable TV seem so unattractive.

talk about how much money can be saved with no sacrifice in service



Since the economy became so poor a couple of years ago a lot of people have suffered. Between job losses, reductions in hours, pay rise freezes and a general increase in the cost of living, many people are finding it hard to make ends meet. Some people have chosen to end their cable TV service in order to save money, but there is a better way! You can save money and yet not compromised on TV service when you choose to buy PC Satellite TV instead of regular cable service.



The average cable TV package today costs around $89 a month. To get a premium service with more channels, including those that specialize in movies and children's entertainment costs even more, and ensures that the costs steadily mount. There may also be equipment rental costs to pay.



By comparison, PC Satellite TV costs only a one off fee of $49.95. There is no monthly subscription cost to pay and no equipment rental to drive the cost of your monthly up even higher. If you were to buy the PC Satellite TV software and use it even for just a month, you would save almost half compared to having cable service!



Over the course of your first year on the other hand, you would save more than a thousand dollars. In today's economy where jobs are so uncertain and where everybody needs to save money, that is a significant saving to consider.



But the saying goes that you only get what you pay for-so does it mean that by paying so little, you get equally little in return? Thankfully, the saying isn't always true! In this case, what you get is a high quality TV service that is almost as good as HDTV, good enough in fact that you can watch it on your main TV instead of just watching it on your home computer.



There is no reduction in the amount of choice that you have either. Where as with local cable TV you might get a few hundred channels to choose from, with PC Satellite TV you have the choice of three thousand channels! There are sports channels, kids channels, news and current affairs, movies and educational channels. And you aren't just limited to channels in the USA.



Instead you have access to TV channels from around the world. This gives you the chance to keep up with news that you wouldn't otherwise see, or watch your favorite sports team play matches live as they happen. Yet you pay no monthly fee at all for this premium quality service.



The software that you need is easy to download and install, and will run on any Windows computer. A user friendly menu and TV channel guide ensures that even the least PC literate will be able to find their way around the system and find the channels that they want to watch.



By choosing PC Satellite TV you have all the choice in the world-literally. Yet you have next to none of the cost to foot, making this the perfect win-win situation!
